Jury hears recording of Cassie threatening man who claimed to have sexually explicit video from Diddy ‘freak off’ party

Warning: This article contains allegations of sexual harassment, and domestic violence which some readers may find distressing.

As the trial of Sean 'Diddy' Combs continues in New York, the jury has heard a recording taken by Cassie Ventura of a conversation she had with a man who said he had seen a sexually explicit video of her.

The trial began on 12 May and sees Combs accused of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution, which could land him with a potential life sentence should he be found guilty of all charges.

During the trial, the court has heard from Ventura - who is one of the key witnesses in the trial - regarding Combs' alleged behaviour towards his former partner as well as the infamous 'freak off' parties.

As the trial in New York continued on Friday (16 May), the jury heard a recording - taken by Ventura - of a conversation she had with a man in Atlantic City back in 2014.

Ventura can allegedly be heard threatening the man, who said he had seen a sexually explicit video of her.

“I’m going to kill you, and then he’s gonna kill you again,” she allegedly says.

According to CNN's live coverage, it's not clear if there was a video, however, Ventura had testified that she believed a man had secretly videoed her and Combs at a 'freak off' party.

Combs had allegedly told her he would 'take care of it.'

Earlier in the trial, jurors were horrified when they heard Ventura's description of the 'freak off' parties.

The New York jury was shown sexually explicit images taken from Diddy's so-called 'freak-offs', which allegedly consisted of forcing his drug-fuelled ex-girlfriend to have intercourse with male prostitutes as he voyeuristically masturbated.

Three reactions in particular were noted by CNN.

Its live federal court report revealed how one 'female juror let out a deep breath and rested her hand on her chest as an image was placed on the monitor before her.'

A male juror also 'looked at the screen at one of the images and his eyes appeared to move away quickly’, while a third scribbled something down on his notepad.

Ventura claimed in federal court that Diddy threatened to release videos of her engaging in these 'freak-offs'.

“I feared for my career," she admitted. "I feared for my family. It’s just embarrassing. It’s horrible and disgusting. No one should do that to anyone.

"He pulled up 'freak off' videos on his laptop that I thought were deleted. He was showing them with other people around. I said, 'You are embarrassing me.'

"I was scared, I felt trapped, how do you get out of this situation?"
